Red Lotus Team Get Together

Vlad slid back away from the man feeling the burn from his slash. 'Swordsman... right. GO FOR THE ARMS!' A little voice screamed inside his head. Vlad shadow bended five shadowclone and covered his own body with a shadowy mask to cover his energy and aura... All the shadow clones pulled out shadowbended daggers, and charged one by one then repeatedly, Slashing at the mans arms.

He went back into his original stance as he felt the wave of hot light energy slapped his opponent. He stood there as than he could sense clone surrounding him in all directions but then watched his opponent cover himself with dark energy. Though it did hide his markings he had seen him do so to make the effort to hide himself. Yehonatan could still see the fluctuations of the fake clones but one was trying harder to cover up his real self so still he could tell which one was the real one. Each had a slow pulse of energy and light emitting from the clones. The one and only one had a faster speed of energy and light in which they were doing double the work to conceal him.

Than as easy as it could get they attacked him one by one which it even easier to pace and counter. The first one came in and hidden blades popped out from their sheaths under his arm as he twirled slashing the first clone in the throat causing it to burst away. He acted quickly and placed his hand upon the next clone that was attacking him. His hand upon the forearm pushing it up as he twirled closer to it and following up with a slash to the throat. He repeated but countered in 5 different forms of martial art until he came upon the real one. Retracting his blades back where they were hidden, he pushed the strikes to the side.

Simply countering all hand to hand combat and avoiding the shadow weapon. When he saw and opening he struck right below the elbow on the forearm causing immediate numbness and placing two trust punches into the mans sternum. A vital weak point in any man including himself. He simply stepped back and waited for the man to respond with something new and hoping not shadow clones again.

Ji Mei got up, and walked over to Sam and Yumi. "Hi girls." She said with a smile. "That was a good fight Yumi, thank you for the work out." She turned to Sam. "I heard you are looking for a sword master. Well I think that Heng is a master of all different kinds of blades. Just to let you know." She said as she looked over to Heng who was balancing a dagger on his finger on his right hand and twirling the half sward in his left. "See he has skills and tricks of all kinds." She turned back to Sam.

Vlad fell onto his back looking at the man. Staring him right in the eyes... then he saw it. The opportunity to strike! Vlad shadowbended himself into thin air then came out of the mans shadow. As soon as he resintergrated from the transport, he lifted an arm up and struck right in the mans spine with a speed of dark blast. He saw the shadows blow into his back and the mans aura faded completly... Vlad dropped back exhausted and drained... he looked up to see what damage he has caused... "Huhhhhhh.... Hmmmmm?" He groand as he lifted his head. He looked at the man...

"Yea im a spirit bender. Kinda more of a pain than a privlage, but im not complainin." Sam looked over at Ji who just walked over. After hearing the bit about looking for a master she turned to Heng. "Hey pretty boy, your ability match your looks?"

"Huh Wha...?" He fumbled and dropped both blades. After picking them up with one hand he put his hand behind his head and laughed nervously. "Ha... Yea it's just something I taught myself..." He had never been complemented before so he was kind on embarrassed. A slight brush of pink covered his cheeks. He stood up,walked over to Sam, and held out the blades. "Wanna learn?" He said with a charming smile.

He looked at the man as he stood on the outside of the ring, just on the line to keep him in bounds. He watched the man and he saw his body shine with energy as he was about to bend. The trail was obvious, behind him. The man was fatigued and was not thinking straight but this was perfect as he did not have to attack him at all but just lure him in for the win. As the man shadow bended one more time. He light jumped and to him time had frozen only because he was moving so fast. A false body stood were he was last standing which was the target the man was after. As he was done the man was on the outside of the ring and punched the man. The false body fell over in a burst of light.

Yehonatan was standing on the far side of the inner ring looking at him with his arms crossed at him pointing to the mans feet. They were on the outside of the ring which than gave Yehonatan the victory.

"I have spared with a Dark bender since I was 10 years old. I know most of the tricks they give in battle. I did not have to use all my abilities to defeat you in a ring battle, just out smart you due to your energy being drained so hard to push me out of the ring."

He took off his blindfold as he placed it back in his pocket.

"I am blind to be honest. I can not see physical properties but I can see light and energy. I was trained by a man named Azeroth and he taught me everything about light and the connection with energy."

He simply crossed his arms as he looked at the man who was tired. It was a good fight but the man tried way too hard to beat him.

"It was a good spar and you asked my name a while ago. It is Yehonatan."

He walked away giving the man space.

Vlad chlenched his teeth... Grabbed his chest and gave an earblowing yell. "Ahhhhhh!!! Not now!!!" His body began to strain in the motion a victim of a bloodbender would. "Y...Yeho.... My sack! Grab th... the puoch... in the sa... sack! NOW!" Vlads eyesite started to grow dark... This was the beast inside that couldn't stand defeat.

"Well yea I wou--" Sam started to say but was cut off by Vlad screaming. She quickly turned her head in fright about what was happening. She started to see spirits moving around Vlad, whispering into him laughing at his pain. She knew something was wrong just by the dark figures floating around. What scared her the most was that one of them were staring straight into Samantha's eyes. Glowing red eyes beemed through her and it let out a large, yellowish smile.
